Promoção da equidade de gênero para a prevenção do HIV e da violência: resultados da avaliação da Iniciativa de Normas Masculinas do PEPFAR na Etiópia

There is growing evidence of the importance and success of engaging men and explicitly addressing gender dynamics in HIV/AIDS and violence prevention initiatives. This report highlights results from an evaluation of the community-based project with young men and also describes lessons learned from the capacity-strengthening and technical-assistance components.
